Description
100% original & in great shape for being 65 years old! The guitar is very light weight & the natural finish is still very strong. In fact the photos really don't do it justice as it looks much more magnificent in person. Professionally set up with nice, low action; neck plays well & is very comfortable. Warm, rich tone with a beautiful acoustic resonance.
